Pharmacy Services
Our goal is to ensure that all medicines are procured, prescribed and prepared in the safest and most efficient way possible for our patients.
Clinical pharmacy
We offer a clinical pharmacy service to all inpatients across our three hospitals. This means that every patient staying with us has the chance to speak with a pharmacist about their medication
Our expert clinical pharmacists play a key role in monitoring patients and reviewing their prescriptions. One of the key priorities is patient safety and best clinical outcomes when prescribing medication. Your clinical pharmacist will want to know what medication you may already be taking so they can check for any interactions.
Prior to your visit , please print and complete the My Medicines leaflet outlining your regular medicines so our pharmacists and other healthcare professionals can refer to it.
We have a wide variety of clinical specialist pharmacists in areas like oncology, antibiotics and critical care who work closely with the multidisciplinary teams.
